As always, the list is excessively long. Like, does anyone want half of these options? Actually, most of them seem pretty good… but far too niche! The Altar has a greater effect empowering fire abilities. The Altar has a greater effect empowering ice abilities. The Altar has a greater effect empowering physical abilities….

On and on it goes.

I quickly identify the basic upgrades before I start flicking about to see if I can find something that might take my fancy. I mean, it’s hard to go wrong with improving the capacity of the Altar, and improving its efficiency converting Will into… whatever it converts it into.

Both upgrades give the Altar a lot more bang for the buck, so to speak. The capacity upgrade is almost mandatory, since I already have several abilities that drain the entire stock dry when I empower them. In fact, considering the sheer amount of energy the Vestibule funnels into me, I may not even need the efficiency upgrade. I could take capacity at +5 and +10, reinforce it at +15 and then see how I feel after that.

It may even prove necessary to repeat the process again from +20 to +30. More power stocked up will allow me to go ham with my most powerful spells and abilities. Against the three super demons, that may prove crucial. If I can’t throw out empowered wells and Void Chomps willy-nilly, then I’ll struggle to go toe to toe with them.

I continue to trawl through the many, many listings in case I find something I might consider interesting, and I do.
